But first, our stop is here in Britain. They say lightning never strikes twice, but Eric Brocklebank knows otherwise. He's had three close encounters with lightning and is lucky to be alive at all. It was five years ago this week that it happened.
It struck on a playground. I was with a group of air cadets, a regional competition. It was a notching competition, all drill competition, no commands. I was watching them and it started to rain. I put my collar up. And just as I put my collar up, a bolt of lightning "woo" whizzed past me in the mid of strange noise and hit the perimeter fence which was probably about 18 foot away from me. And I just turned around to the cadets and the young lady who was aside me screamed: "You all right, Eric?" "Yeah, I'm Okay." I signalled cadets to stop and as I turned around, the lady shouted: "Eric, your face is brilliant red." I said: "No, I'll, I'll be okay." "Sure you're all right?" "Yeah, I'm okay." So I took the air cadets away from the danger area and left them in the minibus with four volunteers with me to a very large NAFI tent, a big tent which the army used for feeding.
